Coffee Compost

Did you know that Starbucks gives away coffee grounds for your garden?  Often it is already bagged, waiting for  you to take it home.  However, if you go in a store and don't see any sitting on the ground just ask a barista if they have any.  Most of the time they are delighted to give you what they have.

It is better that the grounds go in the garden than fill up the landfills!  Earthworms love the coffee.
I tilled coffee grounds into my bed before planting but am also using the grounds as compost on top of the soil.
